Alright, folks, let’s talk about the buzz around the potential Blue Bloods spinoff. Fans of this beloved police procedural drama are all ears as the show wraps up its 14th and final season. Vanessa Ray, who plays the feisty and lovable Eddie Janko-Reagan, recently shared her thoughts on the chatter surrounding a possible continuation of the franchise. If you're a fan of the show, you know Eddie is the kind of character that sticks with you long after the credits roll, and the idea of more of her story is something we can all get behind.
Vanessa Ray Opens Up About the Spinoff Possibilities
During an exclusive interview with TV Insider on October 18, Vanessa Ray, the 43-year-old actress known for her role as Eddie, was asked point-blank if she'd be interested in a spinoff. Now, this isn’t just any question—it’s the question that fans have been waiting to hear answered. Vanessa didn’t hold back. She said, “I would do anything with these people. So, yes, of course. I don’t know what world it would make sense for Eddie to be in a spinoff at all. But if they need to put me in a wig and dye my eyebrows and I’ll play a different character just so I get to hang out with all of them more, then I’ll do it.”
What’s Next for Eddie Janko-Reagan?
Vanessa also took a moment to reflect on Eddie’s journey, especially her "biggest challenges" in the final episodes of the season. She didn’t want to give too much away, because, well, spoilers—but she did hint at what fans can expect. “That’s spoiler territory for sure,” she said with a grin. “The challenges, I think — she loves this family so much and she loves her job so much. And anyone that comes in her path becomes one of her people, I would say.”

She went on to explain, “She is estranged from her family and all of those things. So when she falls for someone, she loves someone, she loves them really hard. And so I think this season you just see the commitment to those people in her life that she loves.” It’s clear that Eddie isn’t just a character; she’s a fully fleshed-out person who’s captured the hearts of fans everywhere.
Vanessa and Will Estes: Ready for the Spinoff
It’s not just Vanessa who’s on board for a spinoff. Back in February, after the season 14 premiere, Vanessa and her costar, Will Estes, made it clear they were all in for a possible continuation. “We’ll do it. We’ll take it,” Vanessa told Nerds of Color at the time, with Will chiming in, “We’ll do it. One season, two seasons? Let’s do it. Pitch it!”
“Let’s pitch it! Let’s make it somewhere warm,” Vanessa added, emphasizing her enthusiasm for the project. It’s clear these actors are invested in the world they’ve helped create and are eager to explore it further.
The Final Chapter of Blue Bloods
CBS has announced that the series finale of Blue Bloods will air on December 13 at 10 p.m. on the network. While there's no official word on a spinoff, fans are holding out hope that something exciting could be in the works. Cast member Abigail Hawk dropped a hint about a spinoff idea. “There was talk of a spin-off happening,” she told Hello! Magazine in an interview published on October 23. “But if it did happen, so immediately after our series ends, it would have to be not involving the Reagan’s or the NYPD at all. It would have to be set in L.A. or we follow a different family.”
For those wondering if Blue Bloods might move to another network after season 14, Abigail had an answer. “I don’t think there’s a possibility of it going to another network—I know that there’s been a bit of chatter about that, but I don’t think that that’s a viable option given the talks that we’ve had with the cast and the producers and things like that,” she explained.
